Who Pastors the Pastor?
MinistryCare is designed for church and ministry leaders with monthly sessions that serve as consistent checkpoints for healthy soul care.
The purpose of MinistryCare is to offer non-diagnostic soul care support from mental health clinicians and trained professionals to help church leaders maintain wholeness and equilibrium in their life and work. MinistryCare is available in all 50 states via telehealth connects.
A regular “checkpoint” for healthy soul care practice in ministry and the cultivation of wholeness in living.
A place to slow down and order our time, desires, and thoughts to counteract selfishness, impulsiveness, or hurried fogginess of mind.
Provided by licensed mental health and pastoral care professionals who are “established” in their faith journey.
Focused on soul strength and growth to support the journey of living a life of faith from the heart.
Different from counseling, MinistryCare sessions provide soul support rather than a clinical diagnosis.
